Recounting the incident, the 39-year-old disclosed that she was always at the bottom of her class when she was a teenager.
“Another incident that sort of shaped my life, I was always at the bottom of my class and there was this one time that I, I think we were only 52 in class and I came 52, a part of me thought I was smart so I bought a Tipex and changed the 5 and just left the 2”
She explained that there were 52 students in a class and in a particular school term she had the 52nd position. After seeing the school result, she purchased a Tipex correction pen to erase the 5, to make her parents believe she got the 2nd position.
She disclosed that her mother was frustrated about the correction, hence, she punished and disciplined her. However, her mother persistently encouraged her to ace her studies.
